Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a control system for controlling a rectifier. Further, the present invention relates to a method of controlling a rectifier. In particular, the present invention relates to a control system for controlling a diode rectifier.
  • a rectifier is known to convert an alternating voltage or current signal into a direct voltage or current signal. It is used in a large field of applications and industrial processes.
  • the controlling of an output voltage of a rectifier is usually done by the following approach: For coarse regulation of the output voltage of the rectifier, a transformer with on-load tap changers (OLTC) is used. For the fine regulation of the output voltage, saturable reactors are used which are coupled to the rectifier for controlling the rectifier. It is common practice in prior art that the controlling of a reactor is implemented by two current circuits: One bias circuit and one control circuit.
  • the current of the bias circuit may be implemented by a one phase variac and a B2 diode rectifier.
  • a transformer with a number of fixed taps on its secondary side and a rectifier circuit may be used.
  • the current of the control circuit may be implemented by a B6 thyristor rectifier.
  • the control circuit usually consists of a controllable direct current source that feeds the control winding of a saturable reactor.
  • control current may also be a variable alternating current signal, which is rectified by a passive rectifier, for example using diodes.
  • the disadvantage of such an implementation is that for each of these current circuits two separate rectifier bridges are needed - one bridge for the bias current circuit and one bridge for the control current circuit.
  • this leads to more complexity and thus to an increase of manufacturing and maintenance cost for the controlling of a rectifier.
  • the variac used for the bias circuit has to be set up manually leading also to an increased amount of service and maintenance time when commissioning and operating such a rectifier system.
  • the bias current and the control current range need to be adapted to allow for an optimum control response of the rectifier system.
  • This adjustment is usually done manually to find optimum values for a suitable linear operating range in the characteristic hysteresis curve of the controllable reactor element.
  • the rectifier must then adopted to the new process parameters to allow for an optimum control response of the technical system coupled to the rectifier.
  • An objective of the present invention is to provide an improved control system for controlling a rectifier in order to make it simpler and faster to configure and to adopt the operating of a rectifier.
  • Another technical object of the present invention is to provide an improved control system for controlling a rectifier reducing the amount of manufacturing and maintenance costs.
  • a further technical object of the present invention is to provide for an improved method for controlling a rectifier in order to reduce the time for adjustment of the rectifier in case of changes of process parameters and as a result providing an optimum control response for the technical system that may be coupled to the rectifier.
  • the solution is to provide for a control system for controlling a rectifier as defined by the features of independent claim 1.
  • a further solution is to provide for a method for controlling a rectifier with a control system as defined by the features of independent claim 17.
  • Preferred examples of the invention are set forth by the appended dependent claims.
  • the core idea of the present invention is a control system for controlling a rectifier comprising at least one reactor per phase connected to the rectifier for providing an input signal to the rectifier, further means for providing a bias current for controlling the reactor and means for providing a control current for controlling the reactor.
  • the bias current is fixed to a predefined value which is taken as an input signal for the means for providing a control current, whereas means for providing a control current compensates the difference between the predefined value of the bias current and a start value defining a start point of the linear operating range of reactor.
  • An important aspect of the invention is that the output parameters of a rectifier, preferably a diode rectifier, such as the output voltage or output current, can be controlled by controlling a regulator that is connected to the rectifier.
  • the reactor itself is controlled by a bias current and / or a control current that is provided by means of a bias current circuit and a control current circuit.
  • the electrical behavior of the reactor depends on its characteristic hysteresis curve defining the operating range of the reactor.
  • the form of the hysteresis curve depends on operating parameters of the reactor and thus, may change depending on varying external conditions such as signal disturbances, temperature affecting the behavior of the reactor.
  • the reactor should preferably be operated in a linear range of said hysteresis curve.
  • the inventive control system uses a predefined value which is an offset value that is measured and that is used as an input signal for controlling the reactor.
  • the linear operating range of said hysteresis curve of said reactor is defined by a start value defining the start point and an end value defining the end point of the linear operating range of said reactor.
  • a control current is provided by means using a control current circuit to compensate the difference between said offset value and the start point of the linear operating range of said reactor.
  • the inventive control system is able to level and balance the difference between the offset value and the start point of the linear operating range of said reactor making it easier and faster to find the start point of the linear operating range of said reactor.
  • bias current which is simply a predefined offset value
  • it is much simpler and faster to set up the rectifier to a desired operating mode as a minimum of time is essential to find the linear operating range of the reactor.
  • an iterative process of finding the starting and end point of the linear operating range of said reactor as common in prior art is no longer necessary.
  • the inventive control system also allows the rectifier to be more robust to external signal disturbances influencing the operating of the rectifier system such as signal noise. Even if signal disturbances influencing the rectifier, the inventive control system enables one to set the behavior of the rectifier to its preferred linear operating mode more quickly and efficiently.
  • a further advantage of the present invention is that it can be implemented very easy into different technical systems such as control and communication systems, because it provides defined interfaces that can be connected to external systems components.
  • the inventive control system itself operates mainly autarkic and thus, it can be operated independent from control and communication systems which are connected to the inventive system.
  • a further core aspect of the present invention is providing a method for controlling a rectifier by a control system having at least one reactor which is coupled to a rectifier.
  • the reactor having an operating behavior defined by a characteristic control curve such as a hysteresis curve and the reactor is coupled to the rectifier, wherein the reactor controls the rectifier.
  • the method comprises the following steps:
  • the start point and end point defining the linear operating range of the reactor is or can be set by an automatic tuning.
  • the start point of the linear operating range of the reactor is a control current value provided by means for providing a control current such as a control current circuit which is coupled to the at least one reactor.
  • the automatic setting of the control current aims to compensate a difference between a predefined bias current value which is set in a first step and said start point.
  • the bias current value may be a fixed offset parameter.
  • the bias current value may match with the start point of the linear operating range of the reactor, but if the predefined bias current value differs from said start point, a control current value has to be set to compensate the difference between predefined bias current value and said start point.
  • This can also be done by automatic tuning.
  • the automatic tuning allows the bias and control current limits to be set automatically.
  • the object of finding and setting the limits of the bias and control current values is to have a maximum linear control range for the reactor affecting the control of the rectifier. It should be noted that the automatic tuning may also be done in a semi-automatic way using a transformer with fixed taps that are selected during commissioning to set the bias current.
  • a further implementation of the automatic tuning is that it can also work for a control system having just a single control current circuit providing a control current without a separate bias circuit providing a bias current. This advantageously allows a much faster commissioning of the rectifier, as the time consuming process of finding the optimum settings for the linear operating range of the reactor manually can be prevented.
  • the bias current value as a predefined value to a fixed value can be set during commissioning of the rectifier either manually or automatically, but it can also be set to a different value during the automatic re-tuning of the start point and end point of the linear operating range of the reactor.
  • a further advantage of using an automatic tuning of the limits of bias and / or control current values is that it reduces the dependency on manual commissioning in finding the optimum settings for the control circuit.
  • the automatic tuning also allows the control circuit to be re- tuned without the need for a service engineer to be on site of the technical system.
  • the re- tuning also allows the control circuit to be set to the optimum linear operating range, even during operating of the rectifier, whenever the process parameters are being changed or being influenced by signal disturbances.
  • the start point of the linear operating range of the reactor is dependent on process parameters. These process parameters could be the input voltage and / or current of the rectifier.
  • process parameters could be the input voltage and / or current of the rectifier.
  • the advantage of the inventive control system is an increased flexibility in the operating of the rectifier mainly independent from the reactor characteristics controlling the rectifier. Further, faster and more exact results can be achieved when adopting the rectifier to external signal changes or varying operating modes.
  • the predefined offset value for the bias current provided by means such as a bias current circuit depends on a characteristic hysteresis curve of the reactor defining the electrical signal behavior of the reactor.
  • the predefined offset value of the bias current may also change. However, this change can then be corrected and compensated by an appropriate control current provided by means such as a control current circuit.
  • the predefined offset value may match with the start point defining the beginning of the linear operating range of the reactor, but this may be an exceptional case. Thus, in the effort in finding said start point, the difference to the predefined offset value has to be compensated. This is achieved by providing a control current by a control current circuit having an appropriate value.
  • inventive control system comprising a bias current circuit as means for providing a bias current and means comprising a control current circuit for providing a control current.
  • inventive control system may also work in the way that a control current circuit is used alone in the control system without using a bias current circuit meaning that the rectifier is exclusively controlled by a control current circuit.
  • This has the advantage of using a reduced number of electrical components and thus, leading to a decrease of costs for operating and maintaining the rectifier.
  • At least one reactor is installed in or outside a transformer compartment of the system depending on the requirements of the rectifier application.
  • an on-load-tap changer is connected to a transformer department for a coarse control of an output signal of the rectifier.
  • the bias current circuit and the control current circuit are interconnected to each other. This has the advantage that only a current circuit with a single winding in the reactor needs to be used and thus, reducing component costs of the rectifier system.
  • the bias current circuit and the control current circuit are two separate current circuits. This is also a preferred embodiment of the invention as signal overlapping is reduced. In case of a failure of the control current circuit this
  • embodiment helps to prevent excessing of current limits which would lead to switching off the rectifier due to security reasons, because usually the components of the bias current circuit are more robust to signal disturbances.
  • the means for providing a bias current and the means for providing a control circuit are implemented within a control unit in order to reduce space needed by the rectifier.
  • means for providing a control current circuit are containing a software module.
  • the inventive control system for controlling a rectifier is implemented in a rectifier.
  • the application of the inventive control system is not restricted to a specific rectifier application and thus, the inventive system may also be implemented in a system for controlling a diode rectifier.
  • the start point and end point defining the linear operating range of the reactor may be set by an automatic tuning.
  • the automatic tuning of the minimum and maximum limit values of the linear operating range within the control curve of the at least one reactor per phase enables the system to keep within the linear operating range of said reactor, even if the operating mode of the rectifier changes due to external new parameters or signal disturbances affecting the operating mode of the rectifier.
  • the automatic tuning also allows a quick and optimum control response when the operating conditions of the rectifier are changing.
  • a further advantage of the automatic tuning of the values of the start and end limits of an linear operating range within the control curve of said reactor is that a periodical adjustment of these limits can be conducted when process changes during operating of the rectifier are registered.
  • the frequency of conducing the automatic tuning depends on the output voltage of the rectifier. For example, if a predefined limit of the output voltage of the rectifier has been exceeded, the automatic tuning is started. Thus, it is possible to react quickly on process changes such as signal changes and changes in load coupled to the rectifier and which may influence the operating behavior of the rectifier. Therefore, the quality of maintenance is significantly increased by using an automatic tuning instead by finding said minimum and maximum values of the linear operating range of said reactor manually.
  • a further advantage of continuous automatic tuning is, that the current control is operated as effectively as possible giving the customer the highest possible average current and thus the highest possible production.
  • a further advantage of continuous automatic tuning is that the tap changer operation is reduced to the lowest possible and thus, the maintenance of the tap changer device can be reduced to a minimum.
